The daily life of the concubine of the Prime Minister

227

Half a month had passed since the incident. The Zhou family had a new baby, which attracted most of the attention. However, few people were talking about Qin Ke and Chen Xiyao anymore.

Liu Yu finally got the OK from Mr. Chen San and was allowed to go out.

She came to Yuzhen Hall and found that Guyu and Lixia, who had not been seen for almost a month, had lost a lot of weight.

Seeing Liu Yu's arrival, the two shed tears of excitement. They finally didn't have to guard here day and night. They looked at Liu Yu as if they had seen a savior.

Just as she was coming out, Mr. Chen San said that the New Year was approaching and she would be needed to help with matters at the mansion, so the matter of Yuzhen Hall would be postponed.

She herself discovered through this experience that a person's energy is limited. If she wants to make Yuzhentang bigger and better, she must train a real shopkeeper to be the behind-the-scenes boss so that she will have time to do other things.

Therefore, their expectations are destined to remain unfulfilled for the time being.

Liu Yu turned his eyes away unnaturally: "I'll go upstairs to find Limei." When he came to the second floor, he saw Limei instructing the young embroiderers on needlework.

After the disaster struck Shan'ao Village, Mr. Chen San believed that Liu Yu's injury was caused by Li Mei, so he forcibly took Li Mei out and locked her up on the second floor of Yuzhen Hall.

These days, the people in Yuzhen Hall have been nice to her, and she wants to have a close relationship with Liu Yu, so she would occasionally call her "the little embroiderer of Yuzhen Hall".

"Limei, I'm really sorry." Liu Yu stepped forward and bowed to apologize.

Li Mei was delighted and was about to give her a helping hand, but when she thought of how Mr. Chen San had gotten her out regardless of her will, she withdrew her hand, sat down, and said in a stern manner: "Mrs. Chen San still remembers a commoner like me. I thought you were still prepared to forgive me!"

Liu Yu straightened up, stood up, and walked to sit opposite her: "Sister Limei, you are joking. My sister was injured recently and has been unable to come out. I was unable to come to see you just now. How can you say that I forgive you!"

Although, but! Liu Yu did go with the flow and kill her arrogance, but Liu Yu would never admit it.

Li Mei also came from a cannibalistic family, so she could more or less see what Liu Yu was thinking, but she was not angry. When she learned that Liu Yu was Mrs. Chen San, even if Liu Yu had not asked her to come out, she would have found a way to follow him out.

"Whatever you say is what it is!" Li Mei did not comment: "Tell me! What are you going to do with me?"

"Sister Limei, open up." Liu Yu's smile became brighter:

"I just like people like you who are not frank. So, what we discussed last time in Shan'ao Village will still be effective. Our Yuzhen Hall will have the first right to use your latest new products. On this basis, you will also be responsible for teaching every embroiderer in my Yuzhen Hall how to embroider new products."

Li Mei was surprised: "It's that simple, you're willing to let me go, and you don't mind me teaching in other embroidery workshops?"

What Liu Yu originally wanted was to seize an initiative, not to seize the embroidery and weaving industry. It doesn't make sense to eat meat yourself and not give soup to others. That will only kill yourself.

Recently she heard that some weaving workshops have started looking for the best weaving workshop in the world, hoping to incite other weaving workshops to boycott double-sided embroidery.

"Don't mind, just keep my promise. I won't care about other things." Liu Yu said with a faint smile.

Li Mei smiled: "Okay, it's a deal, remember what you said."

"Of course." Liu Yu called Jingzhe and asked someone to write two copies of the deed and sign their names.

After finishing, Liu Yu directly ordered without any hesitation: "Sister Limei, please teach these young embroiderers the dozen or so methods, patterns, needle techniques, and colors you have!"

"Okay, this is easy. Within two months, I guarantee that 30% of the embroiderers in your shop will be able to master it." Li Mei said confidently.

She had not been imprisoned these days in vain, as she had known all the embroiderers here.

Liu Yu nodded. In two months, 30% of the results were different from her guess.

But think about it, it's actually not quite right. As someone who has led people before, she knows it best. When it comes to embroidery skills, even after she carefully selected them, not all of them are geniuses.

"So good."

Li Mei smiled sincerely, thinking about the future. Now that she was back, she had to make plans for the future and couldn't just wait for others to come to her.

Seeing Li Mei like this, Liu Yu didn't want to discourage her, but he still had to remind her: "Li Mei, Yuzhentang has two stores in Beijing, and the other five are distributed in Jiangsu and other places."

"What do you mean?" Limei didn't understand.

"You have to teach other shops as well." Liu Yu affirmed her idea.

Limei was dumbfounded.

Liu Yu ran away, ignoring Lixia and Guyu's pitiful looks and Limei's regret, and left Yuzhen Hall.

When she returned to the gate of Chen's house, she met Qin Ke again. Liu Yu just looked at him for a few seconds and asked about the situation. When she learned that it was Chen Xiyao who personally ordered not to let him in, she did not care anymore.

Spring has gone and winter has come. It has been more than a month. Perhaps it was because Mr. Chen San deliberately let go of the affairs of the court. Nothing outrageous happened during the New Year's Day this year. On the contrary, the Zhou family, due to Zhou Zheng's control over the court, has more and more rumors among the people.

Previously, in order to save face for the eldest great-grandson, the Zhou family forced Zhou Huaian to take the mother who gave birth to the eldest great-grandson as a concubine. Recently, the concubine's family heard the news from somewhere, and their daughter married into the Zhou family, and brought the whole family to find the Zhou family.

I don't even know where I heard the amount of betrothal gifts that the Zhou family gave to Chen Xiyao, so I directly asked for the same betrothal gifts from the Zhou family.

The Zhou family would naturally not agree, but that family was like a barefoot family that was not afraid of those wearing shoes. They came to the house every day, shamelessly blocking the way at the door and shouting loudly about how Zhou Huaian forced a decent girl.

Although Zhou Zheng became a powerful official second only to the emperor, the person above him did not believe him.

In this situation, everything that happened in the Zhou family's first wife was like putting him on the spot. The Zhou family's first wife also became the existence that Zhou Zheng hated the most, and Zhou Zheng began to train the eldest son of the second wife.

Zhou Huaian finally paid the price for his actions. After those women who had followed him knew that he had become the abandoned son of the Prime Minister, they all started to have ideas. Some of them even cheated on him and some even took away the property of the first wife.

Zhou Huaian had offended many people in the past. Although they did not do anything too embarrassing on the surface for Zhou Zheng's sake, they still made things difficult for Zhou Huaian.

Zhou Huaian is no longer as glamorous as before.
